About BodyDreaming™

BodyDreaming™ is a way of working with dreams and images that tracks the pathways in the body where the energy of the dream is held.It invites us into the place of healing between body and dream, where old traumas, symptoms and complexes hold fast in the neural pathways of the body.

When supported, the body may be ready to release this blocked energy and be restored to its inherent organic wisdom.

Image and impulse align with greater ease and fluidity and we can feel the ground of our sensing body interweaving with psyche, recovering our connection with the living earth in a mutual participation .

Quotes

'This is your body,Your precious gift,Pregnant with wisdom you do not hear,Grief you thought was forgotten,And joy you have never known.'Marion Woodman

“If only we can bring the wisdom of the body to consciousness, spirit will no longer be homesick for home.”Marion Woodman, Leaving my Father's House.

“For what is the body? The body is merely the visibility of the soul, the psyche; and the soul is the psychological experience of the body. So it is really one and the same thing...Soul and body are not two things, they are one.”C.G.Jung, Zarathustra Seminars.

"... all the particles of the worldare in love and looking for lovers.."
